Today I learned that the folks over at Explain XKCD actually figured out the paths between those Wikipedia pages. And that finding links between seemingly unrelated articles is actually a game.
Recently I learned that during Yuri Gagarin's first flight into space, he had to parachute out of his spacecraft because the Soviets hadn't figured out a way for the pilot to safely land while remaining inside the spacecraft. The Soviets lied about this during the press release because it would have been embarrassing internationally if word had gotten out that they couldn't land their pilots safely and because it technically wouldn't have counted as a successful spaceflight according to the international organization which keeps track of such things.
Every so often, inline speed skates come through our local Goodwill. One of the employees called them clown skates while talking to my wife, and now she likes to talk about my clown skates, which I bought used but not from Goodwill. (Mine have 4 110 mm wheels on each, so they are about 45 cm long.)
There is a whole row of these lesser known prophets in the bible
After the book Obidiah comes the book Jonah, the guy who was swallowed by that whale... three days ofc
A lot of the time they talk about the 'urban area' population. And that extends further than just what is in the geographic area covered by that city's government. So it's common to talk about Los Angeles as 10mil, rather than the 3mil on that list. And Washington as 3mil, rather than under a million. If you only follow the lines on the map, you get a different answer than what people think of as part of the city.
Many things about Steven Seagal, starting from watching Karo Parisyan tells a story of how Gene LaBell, a martial artist and judo legend, accept Seagal challenge to try to choke him, which he did, and pretty much put him to sleep and caused him to defecate and urinate in his pant.
From there I learn couple more things about Steven Seagal, that he has a lot of sexual assault allegation from harassment to rape allegation. He is also known to be mean and harsh to the stunt man, that resulted in broken arms and other kind of injuries. In a nutshell, I just learn that he is not only a joke, but also a bung hole. Back-then I thought he was funny/silly, but now he is worst than a filth to me.
